Nice Scanner
Easy to set up. Light weight, compact and fast. Scans are very sharp. I like that you can scan directly to an email to be sent–that’s handy.

Can’t even set it up
UPDATE:I would buy the Epson if I could do it over. I waited too long to return this one. Not only is it difficult to set up, it is hard to get the pages set into the feeder straight so they get pulled in at an angle a lot of times. Now, there is a “skew auto correction” that will correct a lot of this, but sometimes the page still is skewed after scanned. You just don’t feel like you ever get the pages set good when you put them into the feeder. Also, the little paper guides that you adjust to the size of your paper are hard to control. When you close them in on your paper to stabilize it, it pushes the paper around and skews it more.First Review:The instructions on this are miserable. They say quick start-up, but they don’t work. You will probably need the special usb cable (not the regular one) to set it up and it does not come with the product. The quick start- up refers you to the on line manual for help, and it doesn’t say a thing about how to connect the device. So, if you want to buy this, buy the cable first, else prepare to be frustrated! I’ll write another review once I get it set up and start using it.

Wireless may not work
Worked well, except spent hours and hours trying to use it wireless, to no avail. Brotherâs tech support finally told me to buy a cable. It is an odd cable; stores did not carry it but I was able to pirate one from a backup disk drive.

It’s a decent little scanner, but dear lord the wireless setup is appalling.
Ordered two for my office. There is a wireless setup tool that’s required if you’re a Mac user and you want to attach it to your wireless network. On Brother’s support | downloads page, it’s available under MacOS 13.x, not 14.x.Got the first one working (after much consternation) and thought I had setup figured out. For no apparent reason, the tool will not detect the second scanner. And does the scanner have a web interface page available once you give it an IP address? Who knows? The guy writing the manual didn’t seem to.Brother, you’re too well established for this kind of stuff. Imagine the numbers you could sell if you documented your products properly and didn’t frustrate your customers.

Excellent scanner
For my needs, it is the best scanner I ever had (and I have used quite a few.) I am moving and I have tons of papers, so I decided to destroy them but to digitize many of them. In a few days I scanned lots of documents and various papers like medical, banking stuff, tax returns, technical papers, etc.. The result is organized in multiple folders and amounts to 1.27 GB which represents a lot of data. This little scanner is optimized for this type of utilization, of course I would not use it to scan and copy photographic material.It is really small, very easy to use and it interface is extremely well done. A feature I like, is that I could select PDF output and the result is a readable PDF document, the OCR is done automatically. Of course I also appreciate the wireless capability, one less wire and flexibility of placement.If you use it at 300×300 dpi its scanning speed is very fast, and when I compared the output with 600×600 dpi, which is slower, there was no significant difference in quality.I am used to traditional flat scanners but this one is so much painless to use that I am really impressed, and of course it is quite inexpensive. I strongly recommend it.

Compacto e leve, quase não ocupa espaço na bancada. A velocidade de operação é muito boa, só achei que faltou uma “bandeja” para seguro a folha após ser digitalizada.

Canât say it was easy to set up. But I can say it was worth it to buy because of the document feed port being in the upright position making it easier to load than flat bed scanners. Also this has an option to scan both sides of the page at once.

Rápido nas folhas e aplicativo fácil uso
BUYER, Ottawa, Canada –
A $301.00 Scanner comes without a $2 Cable — cable and makes the installation harsh – liability for those who do not have that type of cable.At this kind of cost, the missing cable (Not supplied) of a total value of most likely $2.00 makes the entire installation impossible since it is mandatory for the Wireless installation as well.After writing the initial review above, unfortunately I have to review it and revise my conclusion: I reduced my evaluation since once installed the scanner couldn’t stay on and the start button is flashing constantly. The scanner is permanently off line and upon repeating the painstakingly install I gave up, wrapped it and returned it. It was a fairly frustrating experience. The instructions are confusing and all the best efforts to complete it in four separate ways failed at the end as the device goes off line and stays unusable. The install and attempts, the drive downloads and the software, the internet study, the videos seen, the brother site visits, all went useless versus the death of the device which is off line and cannot stay on.As I got through the previous buyers’ reviews, I am so sorry I didn’t read these fist.Extremely disappointing experience and product.
